{"product_id":"standing-woman-ryukado-ryukado","title":"Standing Woman (Ryūkadō) - Ryūkadō","description":"\u003cp\u003eA refined bijin-ga hanging scroll by Ryūkadō, depicting a woman adjusting her hair in a traditional kimono.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis hanging scroll depicts a woman in a moment of quiet preparation, her hands raised to adjust her hair. The work belongs to the bijin-ga genre, a category of Japanese art focused on the portrayal of beautiful women. Ryūkadō employs a delicate line quality, characteristic of the period, to define the contours of the figure and the folds of the kimono. The composition is restrained, placing the subject against a neutral background to draw attention to her posture and the subtle patterns on her garments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe figure wears a white kimono with a red under-layer, a colour combination that provides a visual anchor for the composition. The sleeves feature faint floral motifs, rendered with precision. The artist captures a sense of movement through the gentle curve of the woman's body, a common stylistic device in eighteenth-century Japanese painting to suggest grace and fluidity. The mounting of the scroll, featuring patterned textile borders, complements the aesthetic of the central image.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRyūkadō, an artist associated with the Ukiyo-e tradition, demonstrates a focus on the ephemeral nature of daily life and fashion. The painting reflects the technical skill required to work on silk, where ink and pigment must be applied with control to prevent bleeding. The work avoids excessive ornamentation, allowing the viewer to focus on the subject's expression and the elegant lines of her attire. This piece offers a glimpse into the artistic conventions of the Edo period, where the depiction of women became a primary subject for painters and printmakers alike. The scroll remains a clear example of the formalised beauty standards and the refined brushwork prevalent in the regional schools of the time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/the-actor-segawa-kikunojo-ii-as-the-courtesan-umegae-suzuki-harunobu\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eThe Actor Segawa Kikunojo II as the Courtesan Umegae - Suzuki Harunobu — Suzuki Harunobu\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/mountains-and-rivers-along-the-kisokaido-utagawa-hiroshige\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eMountains and Rivers Along the Kisokaidō - Utagawa Hiroshige — Utagawa Hiroshige\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Ryūkadō","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59072737608015,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59072745734479,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59072745767247,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59072745800015,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59072745832783,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59072745865551,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59072745898319,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59072745931087,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59072745963855,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59072745996623,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59072746029391,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59072746062159,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Standing-Woman-Ry-kad-_Poster_CompositorV1_1791524454913.jpg?v=1791525132","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/standing-woman-ryukado-ryukado","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
